A VERY IMPORTANT WEEKEND

11/11/2010

This weekend is the most important weekend of our volleyball season. This weekend determines just how determined we are! Unfortunately, we fell to Asbury a couple weeks ago, letting them snag the Conference Champion name. This weekend, it will be a different story. This weekend, at our Conference Tournament, we will not fall to Asbury. Instead, we will win the tournament title and move on to Nationals.

This week is our week to prepare. Sunday night the girls and I watched the Asbury game again. Each of us took a player on the opposing team. AND WE STUDIED EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM. I took the setters, Breezy took the middles, etc... Although us girl concluded we just had a bad game and played poorly, we also agreed that they had their best game. They got up almost all of our hardest hits, deepest shots, and hardest serves. This weekend, that won't happen. We will be the Tournament Champions.

Before playing Asbury, we will have to defeat two other conference opponents. We play St. Louis of Pharmacy first, and then we play the winner of Mountain State and IU Southeast. When we win both games, we will play in the Championship game.

(I'm not being cocky folks. I truly believe we will play in the Championship game. And I truly believe any team that is across that net will not defeat us. Since we last played Asbury, we have become such a better team. We have played higher level games, we have been practicing nonstop, and we have done our homework.)

I'm so excited to play this weekend!!
